Do a "clear bra" search. There were a lot of discussions here on the subject.
I had the clear bra installed on my Box right after I bought it last year. Can't remember but it was around $1100 for bumper, full hood, lights, full front fenders, installed. Cheaper for part-hood, part-fenders. Had it for a year now and am very satisfied. It's invisible and people only notice it when I show them the two 3" edges at the end of the hood under the windshield. There are no other visible edges. One note though, the installer chose Avery's film (instead of 3M) for my black Box -- apparently doesn't yellow with time and has the same finish consistency as the original paint, thus making it indistinguishable from the 'naked' panels . So far, he's been proven right.

Just in case anyone thinks it's a DYI. The bumper is a 5/5 difficulty installation. Took him two attempts and 6 hours to line up all the bumper lines right. And he does all the Ferraris and Lambos from the local dealers, and is considered to be one of the best in the area. Perhaps it can be done cheaper but there are hack jobs that just cut and plaster pieces one next to another with edges galore.
